ME MEMBER OF THE MONTH: MICHAEL THERIAULT

I first started going to Jibe after I won a one-month membership at work as part of a health and wellness Bingo challenge! My friend had been trying to get me to go for months (I always used the excuse that the drive was too far), but that prize was the push that got me through the door! After that month was over, continuing my membership was an easy yes, and I've been a member since January 2025! An accomplishment I'm proud of is taking a class almost seven days a week! Julia convinced me to go unlimited, and I’ve challenged myself to try to go as much as I can (even forcing myself to be a morning person for Adlin and Liv’s 7:15 class). My most memorable experience so far has been hitting my 100th class. Adlin made that day so special, from adding some of my favorite songs to her playlist to telling everyone about my Jibe journey! So many people that I’ve met from the Jibe community came out to support me, and I’ve never experienced that in a fitness setting before. Plus, the fact that Adlin knew so much about me shows how caring every instructor is! My favorite part of Jibe is a tie between the community and the amazing energy. After each class, I’m always talking to someone about how challenging the choreography was that day or what our weekend plans are. After the second or third class, I found that I was already meeting new people. As for the energy, I’ve never been in a class that gets so loud and hyped! A prime example is taking Adlin’s Rave Night, where everyone is waving glow wands and cheering each other on!
